It showed a picture of Col. Peyton Manning and said he was in charge of the artillery that defended Knoxville, Tn. during the civil war. I actually thought the photo looked a lot like Archie Manning.

I think they meant the artillery that was attacking Knoxville (in November of 1863), and I don’t think Manning was in charge of the artillery. I think that was Alexander, though Manning did serve at different times as Longstreet’s chief of ordnance. Thanks for sharing your thoughts on the photo and the similarity to Archie.

(That’s Pete’s photo from the UNC Greensboro site to the left.) During the idle banter preceding a fascinating interview on aspects of southern society before and after the war, Gerry asked Pete where his loyalties lay for Super Bowl XLI. Pete – a fellow Penn Stater whom I met on an alumni tour of Fredericksburg a few years ago – plead allegiance to the Colts. He also said that Colt quarterback Peyton Manning was indeed named for the James Longstreet staffer featured in A 100 Pound Quarterback? […]
